i just started reading first strike, and the cover says it "continuing the saga of the award winning xbox game!" but in the beginning of the story, there are many spartens, and in the ned of the game, there were absolutely no survivers left, whats up?

If you look at the page before the first chapter, it says "Section 0: Reach" That means its sort of a prologue. It lasts about thirty pages and basically clears up what happened when MC left the rest of the Spartans on Reach to fight the Covies. Read on and you'll learn ;)

yeah it helps if you start on the first book. i think that they are very good books and have read them all atleast 3 times each.

It is a prequel to Halo 2, but you don't need to read it to understand the game. It will help though, I'm sure.

i read the first one, then i started the second one, and found out that it was i was the exact same thing as the game, so i skipped it, cuz i almost memerized the game. what happens in the second one that would help me understans the third, cuz im too lazy to go back, and i already started it so....

Reading The Flood is completely unnecessary for reading FS

The Flood takes place at the same time as the game, but focuses on other aspects of the story. It's still worth reading.
